Sorry if you have seen this before. I put it on the main website under "Autonomo : the Movie" but it is worth a look, even a second look. It´s a short film from the No Todo FilmFest (Spanish but with English subtitles) that features a young woman trying to register as autonomo and coming up against an intransigent bureaucrat. Sounds very unpromising material but actually is extremely well done and anyone who has dealt with Spain´s officialdom will agree that it is achingly true to life. Thanks to the client (an autonomo himself) who alerted me to it. It is 3 1/2 minutes long -
